with all these disc brakes,,you need the dual res. right?


Yes, that would be the best. If the dual MC original application is disc/drum combo, then you probably won't need a proportioning valve.

BTV will not work right?

Not a good choice for many reasons.

IF I go disc, think I will mod the BTV, for a dual master cyl.

I don't think that's possible.

also I I think the pads should be same width as the Packard lining.

Calipers & pads for something of equivalent weight (4,000-4,500) lbs would be correct. Also, the rotor should be at least 11IN diameter.
